Plug in [Front Slider] Thumbnail captions/titles

    Hello!

    Anyone have any idea if it’s at all possible to have the post title appear on/below the thumbnail in the bar at the bottom?

    The way the plugin spits out the gallery is a bit strange to me, (I’m not a coder) I think it could be more a jQuery problem than a php one. Been messing about in /front.php in the plugin, tried this;

    function front_sl_get_thumb($position) {
	$thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail($post_id, $position, array('data-caption' => '#postTitle'.$post->ID));
	$thumb = explode("\"", $thumb);
	return $thumb[5];
}

    But to no avail. I think there is a lot of jQuery to control the layout of the slider bit, and I know even less of that than PHP 🙂

    Any help much appreciated.

    Cheers

    Did it!

    Here’s how. In front-slider.php, wrapped the <img> in a div, and title in one. 

    <div class="thumb">
<img src="<?php echo $thumb_small;?>" alt="<?php the_title();?>" title="<?php the_title();?>">
<div class="captions"><?php the_title();?></div>
</div>

    css to suit.

    Then in slider.js (about line 41);

    var g=$$('img',h)[0];

    changed to

    var g=$$('div',h)[0];

    Actually I don’t know why I had so much trouble. Simple really…
